Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is a 2013 First-Person Shooter developed by Ubisoft Montreal and released for digital download on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Microsoft Windows. It is a stand-alone expansion of Far Cry 3; you don't have to own Far Cry 3 to play Blood Dragon, but having played Far Cry 3 may help you get used to Blood Dragon's controls.The expansion game serves up a love letter to '80s action movies (and video games of roughly the same era) — it takes place on a bizarre, neon-colored island crawling with killer robot soldiers and robot animals, and it features a musical score filled with cheesy synthesizer music.In the grim future of 2007, American cyber-soldier Sergeant Rex "Power" Colt (voiced by Michael "Kyle Reese" Biehn) travels to a remote island to destroy a rogue robot army led by his former mentor, Sloan. Armed with a wide array of weapons and accompanied by fellow soldier Spider (and scientist Dr. Darling later on), Rex has to get the girl, kill the bad guys, and save the world from the apocalypse's apocalypse.Trials of the Blood Dragon, a spin-off starring Rex and Darling's kids was later released on June 14, 2016. Developed by Redlynx, the developers of Trials, the game is a physics-based vehicle game.An Updated Re-release for consolesnote PC users will simply receive a free copy of the PC version was revealed during Ubisoft Forward 2021, as part of Far Cry 6's season pass.An animated series partially inspired by the game, Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, premiered on Netflix on October 19, 2023.Due to an excess of examples, you can find any Shout Outs over on their own subpage. | |

| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_17761744 | comment |
Heal Thyself: Parodied. He still has the Far Cry 3 "poking out a bullet" animation for his flesh arm, but others include pulling a welding torch out of nowhere to weld his arm, plugging a loose wire back in to keep his hand from flopping around, and using a hand-squeezer exercise spring in his normal hand, really fast. | |

Older Is Better | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_192ba729 | comment |
Older Is Better: This is defied by Sloan regarding the cyber commandos made in his image; he claims the Mark IV line, of which Rex and Spider are a part, are inferior to the Mark Vs subservient to him. As gameplay shows however, this is played straight, as the more independent Mark IV commandos are also better fighters, with Rex and Spider cutting down many enemies by themselves. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The animated trailer shows Rex and Sloan in a fist fight duel, ready to square off. In game, Rex (and Spider) cannot so much as raise a finger against Sloan due to their programming. Somewhat justified in that the clash of (robotic) fists is actually a shout out to a Rocky IV trailer. | |

Mission-Pack Sequel: It can be played without Far Cry 3, but uses the same engine, interface, map, and enemies. Its additions are some 5 to 7 hours worth of missions and cutscenes, some new weapons and mods, a couple new enemies, and Underground Monkey variants of most of the enemies in the base game. | |

Revealing Hug: During the explosive finale, as Rex and Dr. Darling embrace while looking into the horizon, she turns to the audience and reveals a pair of glowing purple irises, not unlike those on Rex and Sloan's Electronic Eyes. Arguably a Shout-Out to Thriller. | |

With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Sloan drank the blood of the island's Blood Dragons, which had the effect of supercharging his cybernetics, but also turning him completely insane (and also apparently completely messing up the cybernetic side of his body). Rex implies that he had to have been pretty nuts to begin with to start drinking dragon blood in the first place for no particular reason. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Sloan's reaction to Spider and Rex being sent after him? "Now that, right there, is the definition of insanity." The description for the Galleria 1991 shotgun: "You don't have to be some 20-something douche looking to go from zero to hero to save his grody friends." One of the Predator's Path quests has you hunting a Cyber-Shark named "Brody." Also doubles as a Shout-Out to Martin Brody from Jaws. Being part of an 80s video game, Rex firmly believes that "Winners don't do drugs," whereas Jason Brody spent a large proportion of Far Cry 3 out of his gourd on psychotropic chemicals. Line from one of the scientists: "I was hoping there would be some women here. Maybe one with some tribal tattoos who's attracted to someone with the white savior complex." The morally grey ex-Navy SEAL Rex infiltrating an island warzone filled with angry mutants, non-human enemies, and pissed-off mercenaries under a madman's control mirrors the setup of the original Far Cry. | |

| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6 | comment |
Magikarp Power: The Galleria 1991 starts out hampered by its slow reload time and horrid accuracy. It can be upgraded to shoot semi-automatic, fire multiple shots at once, and load incendiary rounds, turning it into a One-Hit Kill on just about anything at close range, and one of the more efficient ways of killing blood dragons. The Kobracon starts out as a niche weapon for long range gunfights that can often be easily circumvented through stealth. By upgrading its ammo capacity and fire rate, it can double as a medium range marksman's weapon. When loaded with explosive ammo, it can be used to annihilate entire groups of soldiers in one shot or kill heavy troopers in one or two hits. It is easily the most versatile weapon in the game. The Fazertron starts out as a three round burst only kinetic weapon. Fullt upgrading it gives it full auto capability, laser rounds, and a ludicrously large magazine. | |

Stylistic Suck: The developers deliberately went for a So Bad, It's Good feeling, intentionally writing a trite script filled with cheesy one-liners, and having the art director put restrictions on character art to look like all the NPCs were wearing costumes made for film extras on an eighties-era $150 per-costume budget. Hell, the trailer promotes the non-gameplay segments with Limited Animation done in the style of eighties-era G.I. Joe. And the Russian fandub of the above trailer is made in style of 80s-90s bootleg Voiceover Translation, as if it was dubbed by Gavrilov/Volodarskiy themselves. | |

| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Varies. Rex's "HUD" AI tends to be helpful, just annoying. When he's not telling it to shut up, Rex will command HUD to set objective markers. It takes after the usual Robot Buddy proclivities, albeit with a somewhat sarcastic and homicidal bent. The female-sounding AI operating Sloan's bases tends to be incompetent to the point of being dangerous to base personnel; all of the advice it gives is either useless or nonsensical and at one point, it apologizes for accidentally setting off everyone's grenades, then proceeds to set off more grenades. It also kills Dr. Carlyle for insulting it one too many times. The ADVERT AI managing the Blood Dragon nursery and research center is cheerful and supportive - no matter what you do. | |

Actionized Sequel | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_4389e368 | comment |
Actionized Sequel: Compared to Far Cry 3 (and other Far Cry games in general), since Rex is a cyborg commando rather than a Badass Normal Action Survivor. You can have a grand total of 16 health bars (compared to Jason Brody's max of 6), have infinite sprint and run 25% faster than Jason does (over 25 mph), don't take fall damage even if jumping off a mountain, and swim at motorboat speeds while never needing air. The guns can also be made deliberately overpowered with enough upgrades. | |

A Taste of Power | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_43bda213 | comment |
A Taste of Power: For the first mission of the game, you get an arsenal of modestly-upgraded weapons - for example, the assault rifle shoots lasers, and the sniper rifle has a zoom scope. You're relieved of that stuff after the mission, of course. | |

Energy Weapon | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_4536fd29 | comment |
Energy Weapon: Par for the course, considering the subject matter. You can upgrade Rex's Fazertron to fire these, giving it a huge damage boost and turning it from your typical assault rifle to a blaster. Strangely, both the enemy cyborg army and the friendly scientists use the laser-firing version by default. And then, of course, the Blood Dragons shoot these from their eyes. | |

The Unfought | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_464dd7cc | comment |
The Unfought: Dr. Carlyle repeatly mentions a "Man-Kraken" monster that he's trying to send to kill you, but which is repeatedly delayed and sidetracked by various screw-ups. Ultimately, Carlyle gives up on the Man-Kraken and just sends two Blood Dragons to kill you. Dr. Carlyle gets killed by the AI controlling his laboratory for insulting it one time too many, before you even reach him. Sloan, the final boss himself, could technically count. His fight starts and ends in one single Cutscene Power to the Max, for both parties. | |

Technology Marches On: The game's menu and visuals are not unlike that of a movie from a VHS cassette. Also used for in-universe jokes. VHS tapes and old television sets are lying around as collectibles in 2007. Asbestos armor is Rex's final upgrade, named after the widely used fireproofing substance that was later discovered to cause an exciting variety of lung-mutilating problems, including degenerative scarring and cancer. | |

"I picked his brain." "I headed him off." "What's wrong? Knife got your tongue?" "You got something in your throat... me!" "He was dead weight anyway." "Send for a medic, so I can kill him, too!"

Ambiguous Robots: The Blood Dragons might be a case of Mechanical Lifeforms... maybe. Their blood supercharges cybernetics, their bodies are covered in glowing Tron Lines, they shoot Eye Beams, and explode when they die, leaving no trace of a body. Almost every other animal in the game is some weird robo-animal hybrid too. Trials Of The Blood Dragon deconfirms the "Robots" part by revealing that they're actually alien Kaiju. | |

| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Reading Dr. Carlyle's notes scattered around the island reveal that he was once infatuated with Dr. Darling as well as an all-around Smug Snake and Narcissist. After being rejected, he consumed dragon blood mixed with nanites, hoping they'd act like Super Serum as they did for Sloan. They instead decayed a large portion of his organic body parts, with his genitals falling off last. All this then led to his status as... | |

Cutscene Boss | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_9256ac7c | comment |
Cutscene Boss: Sloan goes down in a very cheesy cutscene as Rex punches the Killstar right through his chest, although to be fair, it'd be hard to top the preceding romp with the Battle Dragon. It seems that Ubisoft took a cue from the criticism on Far Cry 3 and left no room for falling action. | |

Retraux: The game is crafted to look and feel like an 80s scifi action film. This goes all the way down to its official trailer as well. The game's artists were directed to use old Sega Genesis game box art for inspiration, particularly with games like ESwat and Cyborg Justice. Also notable are the cutscenes which copy the cutscene style of DOS-era games with Limited Animation and limited color palette. | |

Elite Mooks: Omega Force Elites have about twice as much health as the regular troops, and can be recognized by their yellow armor. However, they're extremely rare, only appearing in a couple buildings and one or two assassination missions. They only appear in large numbers in the final mission, by which time your possession of the Killstar pretty much makes them obsolete. | |

Overly Long Gag: The ending of the tutorial involves a long sequence of forced pop-ups, not all of which are necessarily gameplay-related. In addition, the descriptions of ubiquitous player actions like "look around", "move", "run", "crouch", "jump" and even "press button" get really really detailed to the point of naming specific muscle groups. The tutorial even lampshades it, commenting in one box "Press X if you find this annoying". | |

One such quip goes "I hope I don't have to find any fucking feathers," (or flags) referencing the collectibles from another of Ubisoft's hits. Dr. Darling has some pretty strong opinions concerning critics of video games. | |

Came Back Wrong and Cybernetics Eat Your Soul: Rex states that he has very few memories from before he was rebuilt and Sloan says that the Mark IV commandos were influenced to be more violent. The Mark V commandos that serve Sloan have even less free will, and this was an intentional "improvement" over the stronger but more independent IVs. Restraining Bolt: In something of a Shout-Out to RoboCop (1987), the above tropes reach their logical conclusion when Rex finds out the hard way that cyber commandos can't harm the soldier upon whose experience their combat subroutines are based. Of course, this person is revealed to be Sloan. Fortunately, Rex overcomes this through sheer Heroic Willpower. | |

Badass Bookworm: Whilst unarmed scientists are hostage-type entities, freed hostages act like the allied faction of Far Cry 3, and are capable of holding their own in a gunfight. However, it doesn't stop them from sounding like a team of terrified nerds thrown headlong into a gunfight. | |

Worst Aid: Fitting with the game's jokey nature, it's parodied. When critically injured Rex will fix his robot arm with a blow torch, rapidly squeeze a grip strength bar, or just pop a loose wire back into place. The one time it's played straight is when he fingers the bullet wound to try and get it out. | |

Sniper Rifle | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_e7b73414 | comment |
The Kobracon starts out as a niche weapon for long range gunfights that can often be easily circumvented through stealth. By upgrading its ammo capacity and fire rate, it can double as a medium range marksman's weapon. When loaded with explosive ammo, it can be used to annihilate entire groups of soldiers in one shot or kill heavy troopers in one or two hits. It is easily the most versatile weapon in the game. | |

| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_f89f164a | comment |
Purposely Overpowered: Most of the game's weapons, barring the AJM-9 and the bow, are this when fully upgraded. Many of them will chew through opponents in short order. The non-upgradeable weapons are this too; the flamethrower continues Far Cry's tradition of being ridiculously destructive, the Terror 4000 is basically everything you'd expect from an oversized bullethose and the Killstar is a Sword of Plot Advancement needed to take down Sloan. The trope also applies to Rex himself, as he levels up automatically, levels up ridiculously quickly, can sprint and breathe underwater indefinitely, and can gain ridiculous resistances to fire and explosive damage. Justified in that Rex is an eighties style Action Hero. | |

Death Ray: The Killstar, which you unlock late in the game, can kill most mooks on contact and take out stronger enemies like dragons quickly. Only downside is that it's Cast from Hit Points but it takes so long to get through even one bar (which instantly recovers on its own) and by the time you get it you'll have health to spare. | |

Cyberpunk | |
| Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Video Game) / int_fb01ee16 | comment |
Cyberpunk: Blood Dragon borrows heavily from (1980s) movies in this genre, with cyborg and AI technology existing even After the End of a nuclear holocaust. It is one long Affectionate Parody of Eighties cyberpunk and action movies with Sergeant Rex Power Colt being a Hollywood Cyborg played by Michael Biehn. He is hunting down an army of evil cyborgs led by his fromer commanding officer in a neon Tron-like covered jungle island with robotic T-Rexes. See also its soundtrack under music. Bio Punk: The game delves into a bit of this as well, with the blood of the eponymous dragons causing mutations when consumed by organic life. The blood acted as a Super Serum for Sloan and also fueled Dr. Carlyle's experiments on reanimating scientist corpses. Transhuman: This is apparent in Rex, Spider, and Sloan, who all possess Artificial Limbs as well as bodies that, as Rex claims, are "85% synthetic". This also applies to Carlyle himself, whose consumption of dragon blood has almost completely destroyed his physical body, but allowed his consciousness to survive without it. Dungeonpunk Cyberpunk dragons, 'nuff said. | |
